loaded up and ready to set off on the 180 mile trip at 5:45am!


we arrived, then 10 mins afterwards the other half of team cumbria arrived

just awesome


although nic had a throttle cable issue spirits were still high lol

was a good weekend over all. I think the nova did quite well. Towing is the future. Seems good your dolly. R888 and some aggression off the start line should treat you well.
